We show that the distribution of the square of the supremum of reflected fractional Brownian motion up to time a, with Hurst parameter-H greater than 1/2, is related to the distribution of its hitting time to level 1, using the self similarity property of fractional Brownian motion. It is also proven that the second moment of supremum of reflected fractional Brownian motion up to time a is bounded above by a(2H). Similar relations are obtained for the supremum of fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter greater than 1/2, and its hitting time to level 1. What is more, we obtain an upper bound on the complementary probability distribution of the supremum of fractional Brownian motion and reflected fractional Brownian motion up to time a, using Jensen's and Markov's inequalities. A sharper bound is observed on the distribution of the supremum of fractional Brownian motion by the properties of Gamma distribution. Finally, applications of the given results to financial markets are investigated, and partial results are provided.

Bounds on the expected value of maximum loss of fractional Brownian motion Vardar Acar, Ceren (2015-09-01) It has been theoretically proven through present study that the expected value of maximum loss of fractional Brownian motion up to fixed time t with Hurst parameter [1/2, 1) is bounded above by t(H) root pi/2 and below by t(H)/2. These new bounds provide improvement on those bounds which have been previously derived in the literature. In order to search for closer bounds, numerical study is also performed through discretization method and multivariate Gaussian variables have been examined. The simulated val...
Distribution of maximum loss of fractional Brownian motion with drift Caglar, Mine; Vardar Acar, Ceren (Elsevier BV, 2013-12) In this paper, we find bounds on the distribution of the maximum loss of fractional Brownian motion with H >= 1/2 and derive estimates on its tail probability. Asymptotically, the tail of the distribution of maximum loss over [0, t] behaves like the tail of the marginal distribution at time t.
A GENERALIZED CORRELATED RANDOM WALK APPROXIMATION TO FRACTIONAL BROWNIAN MOTION Vardar Acar, Ceren (null; 2018-04-30) In this study, we mainly propose an algorithm to generate correlated random walk converging to fractional Brownian motion, with Hurst parameter, H∈ [1/2,1]. The increments of this random walk are simulated from Bernoulli distribution with proportion p, whose density is constructed using the link between correlation of multivariate Gaussian random variables and correlation of their dichotomized binary variables. We prove that the normalized sum of trajectories of this proposed random walk yields a Gaussian p...
Geometric measures of entanglement UYANIK, KIVANÇ; Turgut, Sadi (American Physical Society (APS), 2010-03-01) The geometric measure of entanglement, which expresses the minimum distance to product states, has been generalized to distances to sets that remain invariant under the stochastic reducibility relation. For each such set, an associated entanglement monotone can be defined. The explicit analytical forms of these measures are obtained for bipartite entangled states. Moreover, the three-qubit case is discussed and it is argued that the distance to the W states is a new monotone.
